3 Digital Productions created during lockdown

Theatr Cymru + National Theatre Wales in partnership with BBC Wales + BBC Arts

Sarah worked as a Dramaturg on the following 3 productions:

Fy Ynys Las by Eddie Ladd

“an engaging and deeply personal mix of biography and cartography”

Jon Gower - Nation Cymru

There’s no place like home. But how well do we really know this special place?

During the lockdown, acclaimed artist and performer Eddie Ladd has moved home to live with her mam on the farm where she grew up – Maesglas. In every nook and cranny of this wonderful spot – the farmhouse, the cowshed, the farmyard and the potato shed – Eddie revisits her family history, stories from the local community and memories of her own long and varied career.

Live from Eddie’s home to yours, this is a unique glimpse into life in rural Wales during a pandemic.

O Ben’groes at Droed Amser by Karen Owen with Maggie Ogunbanwo

"The piece is full of warmth and hope for the future without avoiding the difficult questions at the same time”

Beca Brown - Golwg

Two friends, a half-hour journey, a world of memories – all from behind masks during a global pandemic.

Join author and poet Karen Owen as she boards a bus and sets out on a journey from her home, and the street where she grew up, to the clock in Bangor city centre. Maggie Ogunbanwo will join Karen on her personal pilgrimage; originally from Lagos, Nigeria, Maggie runs her successful food business from The Red Lion in Penygroes.

The journey itself only takes about half an hour, but it encompasses Karen’s whole life – from early childhood to her university years, passing the hospital and pubs – all speeding past as Karen and Maggie discuss their different roots and life experiences… about love, belonging, racism and forgiveness.

Er Cofid 19 by Er Cof

“A 6-hour marathon digital performance full of joyful originality” – Y Stamp

4 Friends. 6 Hours. 100s of Words. This is Er Cofid 19.

In the first Welsh-language digital performance of its kind, join four friends in lockdown, messing around and shooting the breeze in the name of killing time.  Come and go (and come back again!)  – whilst sitting in the garden, cooking tea or filling the bath. The four will be there for you, providing six hours of entertainment and banality in this theatrical marathon.
